Stockton drive-by victims identified

The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office has released the names of two men killed in a drive-by shooting east of Stockton on Friday, as well as a rough description of a suspect.

Alejandro Castillo, 18, and Patricio Sanchez, 33, were pronounced dead at the scene. Their bodies were found inside a red car where the two were shot at about 6:45 p.m. in the 200 block of South Dawes Avenue.
According to a Sheriff's Office press release, there was at least one other person in the red car at the time of the shooting. A 21-year-old woman was taken to a hospital Friday. She suffered a gunshot wound to the left arm. The wound was not life-threatening, a spokesman for the office said.
The Sheriff's Office is seeking a light-skinned Latino or white man in his early or mid-20s, who was last seen wearing a white T-shirt and a white and blue baseball cap, and driving a white Honda or Acura.
According to the Sheriff's Office, witness statements indicate the driver of the white car was alone. Witnesses told investigators that the white car drove up next to the red car shortly after it had pulled up.
A man who was nearby when the shooting occurred said the white car drove off at a normal speed after the shooting. The witness described the drive-by shooting as "casual."
Anyone with information about the crime is asked to call the sheriff's Investigation Unit at (209) 468-4425.
